 Trees #4 $3.50 Quantity
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Warren Ellis (A/CA) Jason Howard Chenglei is starting to find himself in Shu, the Chinese city built under a Tree: but things are starting to find him, too. There's a storm coming, and the pressure is starting to be felt all over the world. Date Available: 08/20/2014
BONUS REVIEW by Kevin Healy
 Trees has a question for you, and it's a doozy: How comfortable are you challenging yourself with things you're not comfortable with? It's a question that applies to the characters in the book, and a question that applies to the book itself. As a reader, you're going to have to decide if you like NOT knowing what is going on in this book. As the world of Trees expands, we see that what happens around them, the tolerances, attitudes, and environments are all bigger than where we're at now. Call it a societal nudge forward with a hint of warning from Warren Ellis. That's right up your alley if you can put aside your own comfort level while reading about characters being challenged to move outside their comfort zones as well. There's a full page of one of our protagonists wrestling with his own boundaries done only with facial expressions. If your comfortable with well drawn (and well DRAWN) characterization, be sure to check this book out. Also, there are non-terrestrial 'trees' that have implanted themselves in the surface of our planet that may be growing spores with metal wires manifested as flowers that will prevent all communication on Earth, if the rest sounds less than exciting. It's not, I can assure you. I give it 9 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
